How to mix floater powder:Floater powder originates from a plant extract, hence it is organic and safe to use. Mixing the floater which is initially in powder form with soft boiling water is essential for the best results, if you live in a hard water area. See video above.

To check your local area for your water type, see above right. Water has a different level of soft-hardness so when in dought use a soft water option (de-ironised or distilled water), but tap water in some parts of the country is soft enough.

The ratio powder : water is printed on the top of your floater powder container. This is a guide as to how much to use. See above LHS above picture. The ratio powder : water is 5 gms : 1 litre for 2013. ( A HEAPED TEASPOON )

See video above:Once you see the water starting to bubble on the base of the pot, turn off the heat. Start sprinkling the powder slowly over the water, while whisking. Whisk continually, to ensure no lumps in the mix. I used a spice container to sprinkle the floater powder, which distributes the powder evenly, as seen in this video. Ensure adult support when mixing the powder in a hot water pot, as safety comes first.Leave the floater overnight to cool and thicken (not in your fridge).After mixed, its life span is 3-4 months if refrigerated and 3-4 weeks if not refrigerated. Hence you can reuse it over and over again, just keep it in a sealed container in a cool dark place (fridge or outside in winter). It turns back into water over a max period of 4 months. Label it: ''Floater - do not drink.’’Before you use your mixed floater, gently tilt the container 2-3 times to re-distribute the floater liquid, but do not shake. The floater can be thinned with water, but not reheated and more floater powder added to thicken again.Mixing a fresh batch after its life span of around 3-4 months is advised.
